Did someone say they didn't like white bikes! >:(
Yellow is a good colour, I like yellow......or green, yeah green is cool, not pink please my partner is gonna paint her 400 pink...oh the shame the shame. :-[
I think the thing I most like about motorcycling is the speed at which my brain must process information at to avoid the numb skulls who are eating pies, playing the ukulele, applying make-up etc in the comfort of their airconditioned armchairs as they make random attempts to kill me!!!!!!!

I really like white bikes.  That was a serious thought for Delilah when I was gonna do her tank.

if you go white do it in an eggshell or a pearl white, cause bright bleach white will make people think you're a cop from far away... oh, and those are nice classic colors too.

+1.  Have the tank be a creamy, soft off-white, the perfect backdrop for some delicately airbrushed or penned 'tattoos'.  then finish with some solid, fuel resistant clearcoat.
